We’ve learned a few more details about Friday morning’s broadcast of the “Today” show from Faneuil Hall. According to Mindy Kaling’s Twitter page, she’s one of the special local guests. Kaling (inset), a Boston-area native who used to produce and write “The Office” and now stars in “The Mindy Project” on Fox, tweeted on Thursday to the “Today” account, “very excited to be coming home!” Meanwhile, there should be plenty of Boston University kids in the crowd. BU is attempting a “Terrier Takeover” of the broadcast. “Today” hosts Matt Lauer and Savannah Guthrie will broadcast from Faneuil Hall between 6:30 and 9 a.m. Check Faneuil Hall’s Facebook page for details.
